# Paperwork and money kits for new parents and families

A new baby arrives with a birth certificate request, a Social Security card, an insurance deadline and a new line on the tax return, all inside the first few weeks. The new baby kit walks through that list in order, and the family records organizer and emergency binder keep the documents findable when someone else needs them. Further out there are planners for dependent care accounts, a child's first investment account, travel consent letters and the college paperwork that starts in junior year. They are checklists and organizers, built from the official agency pages, not legal or tax advice.

🌙 The desk is asleep. The store never is.

Every kit and ebook downloads the moment you pay, day or night. Questions get answered after we open in the morning.

## Common questions

**What paperwork is due right after a baby is born?**

Usually the birth certificate, the Social Security number, adding the baby to health insurance within the plan's window and updating payroll withholding. The New Baby Paperwork Kit lists each step with the agency link and the deadline to watch.

**Which kit helps if something happens to us?**

The Family Emergency Binder: who to call, where the documents are, account and insurance details and care instructions, in one binder a relative can use. The Family Protection Bundle adds the records organizer and privacy kit.

**Can a child travel abroad with one parent?**

Often the other parent's written consent is expected. The Child Travel Consent Kit has the letter and a checklist, and the free letter tool on this page drafts a basic one.

**When should we start on college paperwork?**

Junior year of high school is a good time: the College-Bound Documents Kit lists what to gather for the FAFSA and applications, and the Parent PLUS planner shows what borrowing is possible under the new caps.
